Earth Day is right around the corner! Science and religion can collaborate to help with preaching about climate change.<\/em><\/p>\n
Preaching about climate change? Earth Day is an ideal time. Photo by jcomp on freepik.com.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nReligion and Science Can Be Besties<\/h2>\n
In 2017, I wrote a blog piece called Religion And Science Can Be Besties! It\u2019s Time For New Friendships<\/a> <\/em>as the March for Science<\/a> was happening.\u00a0 The movement protested Trump administration policies that cut funding for scientific research and restricted the availability of data to the public. The march also called out the administration\u2019s decimation of environmental protections and initiatives to mitigate climate change.<\/p>\n
In the piece, I argued that religious folks can draw on science to help better understand the complex and mysterious world around us.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n
At the same time, scientists can turn to religious communities to help them think through the moral and ethical ramifications of their discoveries, technological innovations, medical treatments, and research methods.\u00a0 And when it comes to climate and environmental issues, houses of worship can be catalysts for action through their moral and ethical frameworks that mobilize believers to work for positive change.<\/p>\n
Seven years later, with our climate crisis worsening, it\u2019s more important than ever for people of good will in the realms of science and religion to work together to address the dire state of our planet.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h3>\n***
**
***<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why I was excited to learn about a program called Dialogue on Science, Ethics, and Religion (DoSER<\/a>) through the American Association for the Advancement of Science<\/a> (AAAS).\u00a0 The program facilitates communication between scientific and religious communities and builds on AAAS\u2019s commitment to relate scientific knowledge and technological development to the concerns of society at large.<\/p>\n
Climate Science in Theological Education grant<\/strong><\/h2>\n
To encourage seminaries and divinity schools engaging with this kind of work, they established the Climate Science in Theological Education<\/a> grant. This project specifically connects climate scientists with those in the context of theological education, leadership, and ministry. Their goal is to enable schools to build capacity to start (or continue) having conversations at the intersection of climate science and theological education.<\/p>\n
I eagerly applied for the grant with a project I proposed through Lexington Theological Seminary called \u201cEquipping EcoPreachers for a Climate-Changed World<\/a>\u201d and was excited when our proposal was accepted!<\/p>\n
Earth Day Webinar, April 23, 2024<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Our first activity will be a webinar on Tues., April 23, 6:00 Eastern, \u201cClimate Science, the Bible, and Theology: Possibilities for Preaching and Ministry<\/a>.\u201d \u00a0This online event will allow us to bring together students, alumni, ministers, and other church leaders to explore what it means to be the church in a climate-changed world, and to embrace an approach to sermons that nurtures spiritual and ecological imagination.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The climate scientist <\/strong><\/h3>\n
We have climate scientist Carlos Javier Martinez-Zayas<\/a> who will share the latest in climate research and what this will mean for congregations who often minister to those affected by climate-related disasters.<\/p>\n
The theologian<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Then, our professor of Christian Theology, Dr. Esther Parajuli<\/a>, will help us think about the relationship between God and suffering in a climate-changed world as well as the role of the church and how preachers can address these themes in their sermons.<\/p>\n
The biblical scholar<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Finally, Dr. Jerry Sumney<\/a>, our professor of biblical studies, will help us look at upcoming lectionary texts in dialogue with climate science and ecotheology in order to suggest entry points and ideas for preaching.<\/p>\n
Register for the webinar today!<\/strong><\/h2>\n
This webinar co-hosted by our partners, The BTS Center<\/a> and Creation Justice Ministries<\/a>. And it\u2019s free thanks to a grant from the American Association for the Advancement of Science program on Climate Science in Theological Education. To register, click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re a preacher, seminarian, Bible study leader or anyone who would like some guidance for thinking about Scripture, theology, and climate issues \u2013 this Earth Day webinar on April 23rd is for you.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m grateful that the hope I had back in 2017 for collaboration between science and faith now has support within my seminary and AAAS.\u00a0 Besties, indeed!<\/p>\n
